(QNO) - While beauty and splendor characterize most of Southeast Asia, there are a few that have something extra for myth-lovers. With the long mysterious history, Southeast Asia still offers explorers many landmarks standing still like the evidences for unsolved historical secrets.
My Son is located inside the valley complex in Quang Nam Province, southern Vietnam around 69 kilometers southwest of Da Nang city. From the 4th to 15th centuries, it was an imperial city during the Cham dynasty. Besides Hoi An town, an ancient destination of historical value in Da Nang, My Son in Quang Nam is also a place of historical and culture-oriented tourism.
The sanctuary comprises more than 70 architectural works. They include temples and towers that connect to each other with complicated red brick designs. The main component of the Cham architectural design is the tower, built to reflect the divinity of the king. Bricks are the main material for the construction of the Cham Towers.
However, it has yet been unable to figure out the reasonable explanation of the linking material, brick baking method, and construction method of the Cham Pa. Even these days, this still remains as an attractive secret to contemporary people.
Angkor Wat (Cambodia)
The complex appears to be a religious site for the god Vishnu, which can be seen in the patterns of the great city. Despite its decline after the disappearance of the ancient Khmer civilization, Angkor Wat still holds a majestic view for any passing visitor.
Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (Myanmar)
According to legend, the Golden Rock itself is precariously perched on a strand of the Buddha’s hair. The balancing rock seems to defy gravity, as it perpetually appears to be on the verge of rolling down the hill.
Plain of Jars (Laos)
Wat Samphran Temple (Thailand)
At 17 storeys high, it’s very big, and it’s bright pink coloring certainly catches the eye – and that’s before you catch sight of the huge dragon coiled around the tower. Located off the tourist track, you can find the temple when headed past the Samphran Elephant Ground towards the Police Academy.
